Carolina Sunrise by SoCharm | Amazing Sunrises

☀️ Carolina Sunrise – Where Lake Norman Mornings Begin in Style
📍 Lake Norman | 🛏 5 Bedrooms + Bunk Room | 🛁 4 Bathrooms | Sleeps 14
🎱 Game Room w/ Pool, Shuffleboard & Air Hockey | 🚤 Private Dock w/ Lounge Area | 🔥 Fire Pit | 🍽️ Gourmet Kitchen & Deck Dining | 🌅 Lake Views from Nearly Every Room

Welcome to Carolina Sunrise, a light-filled, mid-century modern lakefront retreat tucked in a peaceful cove just moments from Lake Norman's open waters. Whether you're watching the sunrise from your bedroom deck or challenging the kids to a game of pool downstairs, this home offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and lakeside fun.

From the moment you enter, the open-concept main level welcomes you with expansive water views and a bright, flowing layout. The updated gourmet kitchen is designed for group gatherings, with bar seating for four and everything you need to prep, serve, and enjoy meals together. Share breakfast at the dining table for eight, or slide open the doors and take it outside to the al fresco dining deck.

The living area invites relaxation with a plush sectional, stone fireplace, and large smart TV—ideal for cozy evenings in or watching the game with a glass of wine in hand. Also on the main floor, the primary suite offers a peaceful escape with a king bed, TV, deck access, and a fully renovated en suite bath.

Upstairs, you'll find three more beautifully styled bedrooms—another king suite with a modern private bath and two inviting queen rooms that share a full hallway bathroom. Just outside the bedrooms, two sun-drenched sitting areas are the perfect place for a quiet coffee or an afternoon read.

The lower level is where Carolina Sunrise really shines. A sprawling game room with fireplace, oversized sectional, and another smart TV creates a second living space perfect for hanging out. Enjoy a round of pool, try your hand at shuffleboard, or take on the air hockey table for hours of fun. Just off the game room, the bunk room is a kids' dream with three twin-over-twin bunks and plenty of space to play and unwind.

Step outside and discover lake life at its finest. The private dock is perfect for boating, lounging, or simply soaking up the view. Relax in the shaded seating area with hammock chairs, launch a kayak or paddleboard right from the shore, or cap off the night around the fire pit with s'mores and stories under the stars.

Every bedroom features a smart TV, and four of the five open directly to outdoor decks—offering everyone their own slice of lakefront paradise. A beverage bar with a mini fridge adds convenience, and the home's location—just 30 minutes from Charlotte Douglas Airport—means you're never far from what you need, even when it feels like you're worlds away.
​​​​​​​
Carolina Sunrise is the perfect place to reconnect, recharge, and start your day with stunning lakefront beauty. Come experience a getaway where every sunrise feels like a new beginning.

Everything we wanted/needed

We rent a lake house every year for our growing family; and this one met every one of our expectations. Clean, well-supplied, extra welcoming amenities. Regardless of ages, everyone appreciates the easy sloped walk to the lake. The view of the lake is great for our morning reading.

Great family getaway

The setting is well suited for family time inside and out. House is well appointed and the management team very helpful and responsive. Exterior needs some attention as well as some furnishings; however, the home was a hit with both children and adults. All were sorry to leave.

Celebrating 30 years of Friendship!

Carolina Sunrise House is the perfect place for celebrating friendship. All of us enjoyed the beautiful misty sunrises and bonfires. House has enough clean rooms and close enough to the CLT airport. We came this time for Fall, we hope to come back maybe for summer. Thanks Carolina Sunrise, you made our gathering memorable!

Great communication and perfect location

Very easy check in, great communication, and very roomy house. One of my friends said his bed was uncomfortable, but my bed was great, so maybe he's just picky. :)

Family mini vacation

The property was beautiful, the house was beautiful, & very clean. There was more than enough room for 14 people to be comfortable. We all ate on the deck & everyone sat at the same table & that was fantastic. We went kayaking, made s'mores around the fire & just had a really great time.

More than we expected!!

Great location, all the amenities, upgraded kitchen, spacious, and very clean. We had a large event in Denver during our stay, so 9 people were in the house and there were absolutely no issues accommodating all. Without question, this is a place we would stay at again.

Stay

Over all we loved this property. Listing was very accurate. However the master bedroom on the top floor had stink bugs in there. The family staying in the room killed about 10 of them. They were on the bed and floor.

Water Depth at Dock

We were disappointed with how shallow the water was at the dock and could not believe there were no signs warning parents of this. Other than that, perfect home.

Lake Norman wedding stay

The property is in a nice quiet neighborhood directly located on the lake in the Westport area. It was well organized, well-appointed, and family-friendly. Wish we had had more time to stay and enjoy the weather outside. Watch out for squirrels throwing acorns from above while you enjoy sitting/eating on the backyard deck overlooking the lake!! (Haha)

Lake Norman gem

This is a great house for a stay at Lake Norman. It's directly on the lake in Denver and has a lot of amenities including kayaks, paddle boards, fishing rods and a full game room for entertainment. A fire pit and hammocks by the lake added to the relaxation. All the rooms were fully equipped with linens and extra towels and amenities. Great contemporary style, fully stocked Kitchen with everything you need for all your family meals! Supermarket only a few mins drive away. Great layout of bedrooms, super clean, and the deck with huge table overlooking the lake was a huge plus. We fully enjoyed this house and recommend it.

Beautiful lake views

We had a great time on lake Norman. We had never been to the lake before and it is absolutely gorgeous. The house was clean and in a great location. We have 3 boys 9,11 and 14. They loved fishing off the dock and floating in the kayaks. Which was all provided for us. In the evenings we played pool, air hockey and board games. The house definitely accommodated our family of 5 but surely could accommodate a lot more. Conveniently located close to many restaurants. We also rented a boat for the time we were there. I would highly recommend doing that as well. We will definitely be coming back!
